About
Lindsay L. Kroener stayed close to home and built her whole clinical training in Los Angeles. A Southern California native, she went from Northwestern University to the MD at USC’s Keck School of Medicine in 2009, then returned to UCLA for Obstetrics and Gynecology residency (2013) and a Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility fellowship (2015). She is board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Her stated interests cluster around preservation and non-traditional family building: oocyte (egg) cryopreservation, oncofertility, LGBTQ+ fertility, along with IVF, recurrent pregnancy loss and PCOS. That combination makes her a natural fit for patients freezing eggs before cancer treatment or starting a family through donor gametes.
She is named to Super Doctors Southern California (2023 to 2026) and Los Angeles Magazine’s Top Doctors across 2020 to 2025, and holds UCLA Health’s LGBTQ+ champion designation.
